sponsor and a person is not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments
and information to enable it to: (i)
Evaluate whether the proposed

for the proper performance of the
functions of the Agency, including

practical utility; (ii) evaluate the
accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (iv) minimize the burden
of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through
the use of appropriate automated
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses. EPA will consider the
comments received and amend the ICR
as appropriate. The final ICR package
will then be submitted to OMB for
review and approval. At that time, EPA
will issue another Federal Register
notice to announce the submission of
the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to
submit additional comments to OMB.
Abstract: EPA would like to continue
collecting notifications from gasoline
retailers and wholesale purchaserconsumer related to commingling of
ethanol blended and non-ethanol
blended reformulated gasoline. The test
results will allow EPA to monitor
compliance with the Reformulated
Gasoline Commingling Provisions. We
inform respondents that they may assert
claims of business confidentiality (CBI)
for information they submit in
accordance with 40 CFR Part 2203.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Gasoline stations, Gasoline stations with
convenience stores, Gasoline stations
without convenience stores.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
mandatory Sections 114 and 208 of the
Clean Air Act (CAA), 42 U.S.C. 7414
and 7542.
Estimated number of respondents:
84,050.
Frequency of response: Annually.
Total estimated burden: 21,013 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $357,221 (per
year), includes $0 annualized capital or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in Estimates: The change in
burden from the prior ICR is due in part
to better numbers extracted from
business and industry economic
statistics that assisted in calculating the
numbers of respondents. These better
numbers reduced the party size by
13,650 members. The number of
responses also declined from 110,700 to
84,050 a difference of 26,650 reports
which reduced the industry burden
hours from 27,675 to 21,013. We also
found that the original cost per response
was overstated by a factor of 2. With the

decline of respondents, burden hours
and responses, and revisit cost per

$357,221 a difference of $528,379
calculated from the prior collection
